Tall tab tales - Carphone Warehouse reckons the Nexus 7 has become its best-selling Android tablet ever, proclaiming "record numbers" sold and, incidentally, here's some marketing spiel. Sadly it failed to respond to our requests for clarification, so we don't know if that's by percentage ratio or sheer volume, we don't even know a ball-park figure for how many have been sold and we have no idea what the second- and third-best-selling Android tablets are at Carphone Warehouse. Also on the list of things we don't know is how the Nexus 7 sales compare to iPad sales at the outlet. Not all that favourably, we'd wager. [PR]

Where is the love, guys? Where is the love? [BBC]

Story time - Twitter is running a fiction festival for no obvious reason and you – yes you – could take part. If you've got an idea for a story that you could tell over Twitter, pitch it here. Then tune in to five days of fictional fun from November 28 by tracking the hashtag #twitterfiction (or blocking it if you think it sounds lame). [Twitter]

Game on - OMT doesn't know what you look for in a videogame these days, but if it doesn't let you dress up as a giant chipmunk and kill people, well, then we don't want to play it. [Eurogamer]
